i actually thought about wrapping it with the CF vinyl wrap, but i don't think it would flow that well without wrapping the roof and other bits. so paint is coming hopefully within the next two weeks.

cf vinyl wrap does not look good period. ive seen things wrapped with it and it just looks very cheap.

^^ lol. it was just to get the kit on the car in lieu of getting it painted right away. i have seen some new CF wrap that looked pretty good. not going that route though, so no worries. calling the shop today to see if he can get me done by next wednesday.

since you live in md just be sure to keep up on washing it. road salt on fresh paint isnt good. typically takes paint 90 days to fully cure.
